7. Carl Dreyer's VAMPYR (1932)

Made by a Dane-filmed in France.

A surreal nightmare on film. If you havn't seen it-give it a look-a classic,IMHO.

8)  [REC] - one of the best horror movies I've seen in quite a while.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YQUkX_XowqI

The subtitles on the DVD are a little better than what's shown in that trailer, there are no "sanity agents" lol.

9. THE LIVING DEAD AT MANCHESTER MORGUE
This movie kick started my interest in foreign horror.
I like the atmosphere, the locations, and the slower pacing.

Some interesting pics so far, a lot of stuff I have yet to see which is cool as it gives me some names for which to keep one's eyes peeled. I've seen Matango, Nosferatu and Vampyr which all became favourites and all three quite striking visually each in its own way.

10. Ringu (1998)

I don't care about all the criticism out there, this movie is creepy as Hell IMO.

9. BLACK SUNDAY (1960) the Itailian film that brought international fame to director Mario Bava and actress Barbra Steele. And established Italy as a major player in horror film production.

17. the original 1954 GODZILLA!

The first Godzilla film,in all it's black and white glory-seemed to be a much more serious and darker-apocalyptic-coming on the heels of Hiroshima and Nagasaki 9 years earlier,than the later films. He even looked scarier!

19)  Curse of the Devil (1973).  Probably my favorite Paul Naschy film, out of the few I've seen.  Slow moving and cheesy, but scrumptiously Gothic.

NOT QUITE SAFE FOR WORK

23. NIGHT OF THE DEMON aka CURSE OF THE DEMON (England-1957)

Jacques Tourneur's top notch horror film feels like a Val Lewton film directed by Alfred Hitchcock.

Tourneur was angry the studio imposed the mechanical demon on him but it went on to become one of the most iconic monsters of the '50s.


Opening credits and first demon scene:

24. The Ebola Syndrome (1996)
Disgusting and shocking.. in other words, a great flick!  Anthony Wong (The Untold Story) is awesome as an inept sleazeball who contracts the ebola virus from an African girl he rapes, and doesn't die from it but is a carrier.  He then does his darndest to infect everyone possible, through sex, grinding up infected people and selling them as burger meat, getting his blood/spit on them, jacking off in the meat he serves at a restaurant, etc.

31. Black Christmas (1974): This classic that arguably ignited the slasher craze (but is that a bad or good thing?) was made in Canada. This movie is suspenseful and thrilling with some startling murders taking place at a soriorty house during Christmas. No real gore but lots of chilling atmosphere. Directed by Bob Clark.

39. The GOLEM (1920) Germany.
Their was a earlier version made-in 1914-and even a comedy short in 1917 called the GOLEM AND THE DANCING GIRL-both,alas-are lost.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Aow8kdrsW8


Just  as a point of intrest-fragments of the 1914 GOLEM exist-but the notable difference is mostly in the set design...no surreal sets  here-as the influence of CALIGARI would not apply to film until 5 years later.

not too many films I rate by Fulci but I enjoyed Lizard In A Woman's Skin and New York Ripper the most out of the ones I've seen.

on the subject of zombie films this has to be my fav:

I'm very impressed with the entries you guys have been adding, some great stuff there a lot of which I have seen (Demons, Quatermass and the Pit, Nightmare Castle, Plague of the Zombies, Atom Age Vampire) but also a ton of great names I've heard about but have yet to catch (Eyes Without a Face, Zombie, Twitch of the Death Nerve). There's a number of Japanese classics out there I've heard are amazing but have yet to see. Suspect someone will add a few of those. Here's my next entry:

58) The Mummy (1959): Hammer Studios take on the Mummy has long been a favourite of mine with Christopher Lee as Kharis and Peter Cushing as John Banning. Fantastic horror from the UK!

63) Naked Lunch (1991): This David Cronenberg adaptation of the seemingly unfilmable William S. Burroughs novel somehow translates to screen in an unsettling manner closer than one expects. While initially it seems incomprehensible and I'd guess is perhaps like something of a bizarre drug high, this delivers some downright weird and often more than a little unsettling thrills and chills particularly involving very sexualized giant bugs. IMDB lists three countries as being involved in this creation: Canada/UK/Japan although to me personally it has a certain Canadian feel and look to it.

74. Blood and Black Lace (1964) (AKA: Sei donne per l'assassino): While technically more a thriller, a giallo, than an outright horror film, can anyone really deny this one's possible influence on the slasher genre with all the brutal murders it displays?  This Italian-West German co-production from director Mario Bava definitely has its scary and chilling moments.

This may be cliche' but the best horror I have seen is from Asia... Not just the Ring or Grudge. And I still have not ordered the gunie pig films yet (too violent for anyone, not just me. But I will be brave, and take the plunge) Also this is not Foreign in my case, but if you want NOT MADE IN AMERICA.

Then check out the Australian film "Wolf Creek" It's pretty much About three young adults that go on a road trip, only to be put in a situation where they have to acept help from a complette stranger who just so happens to find them and their broken down car in the middle off nowhere in the dark and cold (Yes it gets cold in the outback off Australia it also rains get over it) He tows their car to his 'camp' which is like a junk yard in the middle off no where, rustic and creepy.

Okay sooo lets see, This guy is a loner in the middle off nowhere, who loves hunting, has not much human contact and is not good with human contact anyways considering he is very shifty and creepy. Now! What could go wrong?

Well! Lets start with the next day, They all wake up seperated. One girl tied up in a shed, escaping only to find her friend being tortured, and their other friend no where to be seen. It keeps getting worse and worse, as we progress.

The worst part is the starts off all nice and happy. Just three young people going away for semester break road trip, there friends throw them a going away party, where they all drink themselves silly (No drugs or sex but I guess the rules off horror films still apply with just drunken aussies, since we drink hard) they all buy a cheap car, travel around the outback jokeing and laughing. And talking about stupid stuff like Aliens, You sit there in the chinemas thinking "going to central australia looks like fun!!" Untill they get to wolf-creek. Then you regret even thinking that place looks like fun. I have this film. It is Violent.

Has anyone seen these films- Onibaba, Kwaidan, Jigoku, Horrors of a Malformed Man - I've heard good stuff about those but I myself haven't seen them yet?

Also IMDB does list The Last Man on Earth and Dog Soldiers as partly American.

Add Wolf Creek it is not just Violent and nail bitting in that sense, But very phychologically dissturbing. Makes you never ever want to come to central Australia.

I have been to some small towns in the outback, one was strange... Population off 100 or less. The town itself as well as the residents are creepy. I came to one on a bus with my class for a school trip, and people came out off their houses to stare. Every second shop was an opal shop, cause it is an opal minning town. So they stared to see which tourests were going to give them money I guess??? IDK??? They were all just strange. One girl got Food poisioning at a fast food shop where some seedy men scared me quite a fair bit. The only place to stay in, at this town, was an underground, concret bunker. With rusty steel bunk beds. It smelt like evil as that sounds. I think one girl in my class had a polterguist beat the crap out off her that night... Although that incident is a mystery to this day to my school mates!

The outback had Drunkards and werios that is why this film scared me. Not all bad. But it does hit close to home. No pun intended.

103. DESTROY ALL MONSTERS (1968)
I looked threw this list- and this ain't on it- and it should be! One of my favorite giant monster movies of all time!
This movie has every (well- almost every-) monster.
 I don't recall Varan. Poor Varan.

Also, not 100% horror but the thriller The Crimson Rivers (France) has some really scary moments in it.
